    I don't know if it's exactly the same problem, but I've been
noticing for a while now that I occasionally hear some sort of odd noise 
when pulling away.  It's not pinking though.  I first thought that it
was the tyre kicking up debris, but I'm not so sure any more.  The chain 
is correctly adjusted.

    I've only noticed the noise since I started using Metzeler tyres,
MeZ4s and now MeZ3s.
